Abstract, Drawing, Landscape, Mixed Media, Painter

The landscape features most prominently in the body of my work. It is a landscape of suggestion, rather than a faithful figurative rendering; it is a landscape of fiction and abstraction. It almost always contains elements of the earth, the sky, and the sea – or body of water — a river, estuary or lake. These are the essential elements that resonate in my mind and appear in my paintings in the design and composition.

Major influences on my work have been the Canadian landscape, the tropical forest of the Congo and the land of the Mediterranean/Middle East. The light and colour of these geographic areas have influenced choices of both form and colour although the predominating themes are those of northern lands.
